Feedburner Acquisition - An Open Letter to Google and Feedburner
technosailor.com — Since the rumors are pretty much confirmed that Google has bought Feedburner for $100 million in an all cash deal, it begs the question of how well Feedburner will integrate into the Google culture and treat Feedburner's loyal customer base. With their track record, it is not just will they be a evil, but will they be a good partner?

- technosailor, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2obviously, I agree with you
- BLayman, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1There are certainly worse problems to have in this world...
- technosailor, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2Worse problems for feedburner, perhaps. I fear this acquisition may be worse for the rest of us. I don't know about you, but I'm not seeing any of that $100M in cash. What I am seeing is almighty Google taking over more.
- Easton, on 10/11/2007, -0/+2It is getting a bit creepy, huh? Perhaps we should be using code words to describe G00gl3 - er, Uncle G? But also very important to follow these developments. Thanks Aaron for the write-up.
- lsabin, on 10/11/2007, -0/+1I think George Orwell wrote about something similar in 1984ish....
